We love handmade holiday ornaments! They are so fun to make and extra fun to give to friends and family! Here's a little video tutorial on how to make these bird nests:
*Music by Sleeping At Last, Used With Permission. Download his Christmas Album for free here.
Using a few dabs of Elmer's Glue here in there will help your fabric stay in place. I used straight pins through the tops of the birds to attach the ribbon for hanging. You could also glue clips to the bottom the nest to secure them to tree branches.
Have fun making these! xo. Katie




How cute! These look great because the seem fairly simple to make and the are more unique than the usual handmade Christmas ornaments. I will definitely be trying these out. Thank you!

These are so sweet! I've been on a search for some homemade ornaments and decorations that star from the cliched baubles and tinsel. These are perfect!
